Washington

Washington state’s deep forests, volcanic mountains, and coastal regions create expansive habitats for elk, black-tailed deer, mule deer, and black bears. The Roosevelt elk found on the Olympic Peninsula are a draw for big game hunters, while eastern Washington’s more arid landscapes host mule deer and bighorn sheep. Waterfowl hunting on the Columbia River and its estuaries can be rewarding, with a variety of duck and goose species using this key flyway. The state’s wide range of public lands ensures that hunters have diverse environments to explore.

Fishing in Washington is renowned for salmon and steelhead runs along rivers like the Columbia, Skagit, and Snake. Coastal waters and Puget Sound yield halibut, lingcod, and Dungeness crab, while inland lakes provide trout, bass, and kokanee salmon. Fly anglers often head to the Yakima River, a blue-ribbon trout stream in central Washington. Beyond hunting and fishing, the state’s outdoor splendor includes icons like Mount Rainier, Olympic National Park, and the North Cascades—ideal for hiking, climbing, and skiing. Washington’s mix of marine and mountain ecosystems offers year-round adventure.
